With SharePoint it is easy to configure multiple zones for your SharePoint Web Application. For example, you have a Publishing Web Site with two zones.
- The authenticated CMS where editors can manage content:
https://cms.int

http://www.ext
When the editors link to sites, pages, documents and images the URL will start with https://cms.int
. After the content is published it’ll also be available on the anonymous site. Now most of the URLs will be automatically translated to corresponding zone URL and start with http://www.ext
